It’s A Wrap: The Picnic Quilt

I call it the Picnic Quilt but you know the design better as the Ribbon Box quilt, a free pattern from Cloud 9 Fabrics. It’s bound with the same fabric that you see in the prominent red ribbon which reads as a solid although it’s a print containing small random white circles. You can see the print better in this next shot of the label:

A couple views of the back of the quilt, very simply pieced:

I used fabrics from BasicGrey’s “Fruit Loop” line and Sherri and Chelsi’s “Pink Lemonade,” both lines for Moda Fabrics. The back includes a large piece of aqua “Sprinkle” fabric from Cotton+Steel that’s been in my stash since 2015, judging from the information on the selvage.

The Picnic Quilt measures 50″ x 64″ after laundering. Here’s a shot of it all soft and puckery from its trip through the washer and dryer:

The Picnic Quilt is ready to throw over a lap or snuggle under for a nap. I think I’ll give it a test run!

    I wonder how many quilts this makes now and each one a lovely work of art. After every reveal, I always think – what could be next? Such fun!
